The first edition of Place and Experience established Jeff Malpas as one of the leading philosophers and thinkers of place and space and provided a creative and refreshing alternative to prevailing post-structuralist and postmodern theories of place. This second edition is revised throughout, including a new chapter on the consequences of the human embeddness in place, especially as this relates to the ethical and politics and new Foreword by Ed Casey.

Jeff Malpas is Distinguished Professor at the University of Tasmania, Australia. He is the author or editor of twenty-five books and has published over 150 scholarly articles on topics in philosophy, art, architecture, and geography.
